Thanks Simon, thinking about it I think that the fact her mum uses the site would be enough to put her off!! She's 14 and mum's mostly an embarrassment to her - lol.

I'm using Diabetes Diary to keep her records, it's a little confusing at first using different apps for each of us but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

She spent the weekend on the ward and her blood sugars greatly improved once she had access to food restricted, she's not overweight by any means but she soon would be if she'd continued eating as she did.

Thanks again for your reply.

Just to say thanks to everyone who helped. Amy's blood sugars are now fantastic, waking at between 4 and 5 mmol.

She's now on medication for stomach acid (she'd complained of a pain in her chest/stomach and a taste of blood in her mouth) and this seems to have stopped the high levels.

Thanks again.

Caroline

Just an update. Amy got her pump today, (Paradigm Veo) we go live on 21st March. She had yet another dose of DKA this week, four weeks after the last one - definitely hormone related.
